What a crazy night in World Cup Qualifying........I have no idea what to expect Tuesday in Columbus. Hope its worth the 8 hour bus ride with the Chicago American Outlaws...

What's Mexico's status now, are they in legit danger of not qualifying if we beat them?

Mexico has fired their coach.

Serious question: how did Birmingham and Wolves come to hate each other?!

We can clinch if we win Tuesday. All we need is to win one of the final 3 games. We need Michael Bradley, he is the most important player on the field for us.

Mexico is looking more and more like they will have to play NZ in the playoff, especially if we can win Tuesday.

So this One Direction guy played in a friendly, got tackled by Abghondlahor, hurt his knee, then threw up all over the field.

Haha!!! What a pussy.

Agbonlahor and The Who are the biggest targets for one Direction fans. Hahaha

What a joke. The penalty for stuff like this should be death.

How could the ref give a yellow? He saw nothing and there was nothing to call. The player acting should be suspended a few games and the ref the season.

Headed into the city in a few hours to board the american outlaw bus to Columbus......see you on the other side, sports fans. And may Mexico perish....

meh, you found out about the Tico's.

Absolute douchebags.

Yesterday was easily the most fun I have ever had at a sporting event. What a fantastic atmosphere. I got to meet Brian McBride too...

Dos a Cero

WTF was the Mexican keeper doing?

I know El Tri is in an epic funk right now, but I was so impressed with how the US performed last night with all the guys out that they had. I'm especially excited with what I see from Diskerud.

One thing that really made me feel confident for the game was seeing Michael Bradley walking out on the field alone before the game a surveying the field, picking up some grass. Then when Omar Gonzalez and a few others trotted out Bradley spent about five minutes talking with Omar, making gestures that made it pretty obvious they were speaking about tactics. When he walked off the field to head back to the locker room to chants of "Michael Bradley", he gave us a wink and a wave. The whole thing just oozed a "confident professional" and the way the team played really reflected their leader (clearly, he is the leader of this team).

First time I have ever been to Columbus. I'm sure the city has more to offer but Crew Stadium is surrounded by pretty dumpy housing. I took some overhead photos of the American Outlaws bar tailgate from the balcony of what may have been a crackhouse across the street. Graffiti tagged everywhere....

I'll see if I can get some pics up this weekend....
